After a year without any significant gun legislation passed by Congress since the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting in Parkland, Florida, Dem stanley cup ocrats introduced a bill banning high-capacity gun magazines Tuesday, as the one-year anniversary of the massacre nears.The Democratic legislation, cosponsored by Rep. Ted Deutch of Florida and Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey, would ban any magazine that exceeds 10 rounds of ammunition. The legislation, which has been dubbed the Keep Americans Safe Act, currently has no Republican cosponsors, one of many obstacles that would stand in the way of it advancing.During a news conference on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, the Democratic legislators described the bill as one step in a process of passing individual gun control measures instead of a big comprehensive package. Guns become doubly and triply deadly in these massacres because of these high-capacity magazines, said Sen. Richard stanley cup Blumenthal, a Connecticut Democrat. And so if we take one simple step in approving this prohibition, we can literally save lives.

Those children were also burned and placed in the microwave. She said police do not know a motive. She did not believe Yang had an attorney, and none was listed in jail records.
